We made it out of 2020 and into 2021, which is really just three 2020s standing on each others' shoulders in a trenchcoat, and your hosts are here to talk it out. We reminisce on some of our favorite live Radiohead experiences and our favorite live music memories in general, and speculate on what may be next for the band post-COVID.
We catch up after a few months off the air to chat about pandemic life, and don’t actually talk about Radiohead much? Sorry about that. Anima content will return; in the meantime, we get into some of the things getting us through quarantine, and how we're relating to Radiohead’s music in isolation. Link to the communal Spotify playlist - share what you’ve been listening to lately! https://open.spotify.com/playlist/59BSbZJlzUMDjNIPQVv6Ga?si=Ac9SvcuSSDij1TuF3epKlw Links to listener-provided content mentioned in this episode: https://soundcloud.com/user-240615167/kidz-these-days https://a-newsletter.webnode.com/issue-38/
The long-awaited deep dive into Anima begins! Expect to hear the word “banger” approximately 500 times, and that’s just for the first three songs on the record. Plus: a firsthand account from Ed’s first solo tour, including a fortuitous meeting…
We’re back from hiatus! And Radiohead sure did some stuff in the last six months! We take some time today to catch up on a few things, including the release of Anima, Ed going solo, and the newly unveiled Radiohead Public Library. Plus: what it was like to meet Thom Yorke and not make a total idiot of oneself, hopefully.
In light of recent OK Computer leak-related events, we got together to record a VERY SPECIAL EMERGENCY EPISODE to acknowledge it and talk about it a bit - one of us has listened to the leaks and one of us has not, and we thought this would be a short bonus episode but we ended up talking for almost an hour and a half because of course we did. (This episode does not include any audio from the leaks, so that even if you are choosing to abstain from listening to them, you need not abstain from the podcast.)
After catching up on the latest news regarding Thom’s new album, Ed’s new album, and Kid A Not a Dick, we get to finally discuss our namesake song, somehow manage to ruin Staircase for everybody, and then dunk on Twilight for an episode. The pod is full of secrets to be told! (FYI: this episode was recorded pre-OK Computer sessions leak, but more on that very soon...)
We’re back to discussing the music this week, with a few tracks from the King of Limbs era to dive into, like a couple of particles diving into the supercollider or something?? Spoiler alert, I (Anne) don’t understand particle physics at all and that will be made clear over the course of this discussion. Plus: progress reports on Ed and Thom’s solo albums, the band’s recent induction into the Rock Hall, and speculation over a possible Kid A/Amnesiac anniversary reissue. Check out podcast listener James’ recent appearance on Rock Solid, discussing Radiohead! https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/radiohead/id450705818?i=1000429844262&mt=2&fbclid=IwAR3w60rVsqGpTJ28zngFHnd2iIl7d60oNapMTT58PTh4UsLv5nzFx4bA51Q
The Daily Mail reunited IRL to see Thom Yorke on the Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes tour last week, and we get together today to talk about how great it was (spoiler alert: really fucking great.) Plus: Suspiria, LP3, and what we think might be in store from the band in 2019. Thanks for another year of listening to us talk about Radiohead for way too many hours!
We’re doing some housekeeping this week after a few months away, reconnecting to discuss the end of Radiohead’s latest tour, Thom’s newly announced North American dates (yes, your hosts will be in attendance), and the impending release of the Suspiria soundtrack, and to catch up on listener emails. Also, Thom wore a dope suit on the red carpet and we talk about that a little bit too.
For our FIFTIETH EPISODE, we reconvene after a weekend in Chicago to go over our experience together at nights one and two of the latest tour leg. Featuring recorded conversations and interview material from before and after the shows, our favorite moments of the weekend, the songs that shocked us the most (Blow Out!!), and your hosts finally getting to meet in person, this is surely the episode that’ll be on our videotape at the pearly gates.
We reconvene this week to discuss the remaining bangers (& mash) from In Rainbows Disc 2, plus an extra song from 2009, just because we love you guys. Also of note this week: wrapping up Thom’s recent solo tour (with some podcast exclusive info on his next solo album!), and getting hype for the impending Radiohead tour, including the Chicago date that we are both (!!) going to. Until then, enjoy the latest installment of our twisted words.
What is up, buttercup? We return this week, in between the latest Radiohead tour and the imminent Thom Yorke solo tour, to catch up on emails, discuss three songs from In Rainbows Disc 2, and talk about a couple of dudes named Mark or something. Welcome back to topsy turvy town.
In the midst of Thom Yorke LP3 hype, we turn back the clock to 2006 and revisit some bonus tracks from The Eraser era. Join us as we talk rat's nests, goat's eyes, drunk machines, and everything in between. Weluvya, listeners. Spoilers for PHANTOM THREAD in this week's episode.
Exciting times, fellow Radio heads! (Radioheads? Radiohead Heads?) After getting right into the newly announced North American tour dates (!!!), Thom's cryptic Twitter activity, and Jonny's impending trip to the Oscars, we finish up the Com Lag EP with another remix and a few tracks that we suspect may actually be Thom/Atoms for Peace projects in disguise. Tune in next time for even more Thom solo tracks, as we revisit some b-sides from The Eraser.
I Am An Insane Child, perhaps? Or maybe you're just A Very Rude Person? Whoever you are, we hope you'll enjoy the first Daily Mail episode of 2018! After putting on our Official Internet Lawyer hats to dissect the recent legal drama with Lana Del Rey, we jump right back into our b-side series, kicking off the year with some Hail to the Thief-era tracks. Featured this week: a remix, an instrumental, and a song from the Com Lag EP.
